On our way to Mt Tenandra the other day, Dale and I stopped for coffee and scones in Gulargambone, just a little town, but they had a lovely Coffee Shop 28 28….and inside we found some treats both Dale and I purchased a skein of this wool…..now I am not much of a knitter, very dodgy actually, but I thought I could make a scarf , and this is my progress so far, lots of lumps and bumps in the wool, and I am sure this will hide heaps (fingers crossed anyway)…

I showed this photo yesterday of my Dresden Plates, and this is the ruler I used, I did use the 8 inches, so they are quite large…….but three plates I think will make a nice table runner....enjoy your day…
take care Peg…..:>)

  4. Those are good size Dresden Plates. You could make some into place mats to go with the runner.
